Wwise 201 Lesson 1 Unable to Play Sound Asset on Windows

+3 votes
Hello,

I'm not able to play the sound assets provided in lesson 1 after importing them into the Interactive Music Hierarchy "Music" work unit. When I hit the play button, there's no sound, and nothing happened in the bus output meter as well. Would anyone happen to know how to fix it? I see the sound waves in the music segment editor as well, but it's just silence when I play it. My wwise version is 2021.1.0.7575

having the same problem here. When I look at it in the profiler view it just says "cannot open file". Apparently it's because the project files have been made for an older version of Wwise? so how can we fix this?

Also having this problem but on Mac. When I load the project it says the cache was cleared because it was created on an older version of Wwise.

You must re-enable the 'ORIGINAL' checkbox in 'transport control'. I guess clearing the cache undo the optimizations.

The Original checkbox click did the trick for me. Thanks!
